Listen "Breakout Week 4 / Becoming"
Episode Synopsis
As we stand on the cusp of graduation, we're challenged to consider a profound question: What do we want to be known for? This isn't just for graduates, but for all of us on our faith journey. The sermon draws from Matthew 12:33, reminding us that a tree is known by its fruit. As Christians, our lives should bear the fruit of the Spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. These aren't separate traits, but a unified expression of Christ's presence in our lives. Are we allowing our beliefs to shape our behaviors? Are we known for practicing what we preach? The early church in Thessalonica was commended for their faith in action. Let's challenge ourselves to be known not for judgment or hypocrisy, but for our love, our service, and our unmistakable connection to Jesus. Like the disciples in Acts 4:13, may others recognize that we have 'been with Jesus.' This is a call to intentional living, where our actions and words consistently reflect Christ's love and transformative power in our lives.
